PO - Coloured ground bottle caps DS
This product is a by-product of the processing of post-consumer PET bottles collected from household waste (yellow bag). It consists of shredded material derived from the bottle caps. The recycling process involves sorting and shredding the bottles, including their caps. Subsequent separation of the PET and PE/PP plastics then yields a clean, single-grade, coloured PO flake with a particle size of >10 mm, a bulk density of 300 kg/m³ and a residual moisture content of ≤ 1.5. The ratio of PE to PP is approximately 50:50.

In our processing procedure, the PET bottles are first sorted and any foreign and contaminating materials are removed. The PET bottles, including their caps, are then shredded into flakes. The different types of plastic are subsequently separated using a wet sorting process, producing a single-grade, coloured PO flake.
